[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fenomeno83:
thanks but there is a big problem!!!player.exe is incompatible with subtitles plugin!!!can you try?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fenomeno83:
problem is that subtitles plugin doesn't support tcpmp 0.71.and your skin is based onb tcpmp 0.71(player.exe of 2.5mb)

How can I have a skin for tcpmp and keep subtitles
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fenomeno83:
no skins for tcpmp 0.72?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nagrom Nniuq:
0.72 hasn't been skinned yet AFAIK. Perhaps someone can do it with info from the skinned version of 0.71 that I posted. I don't care about subtitles, but obviously they are very important for some people.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nir36:
closing redrawn. my bad.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fenomeno83:
I have found this subtitles by another author. this should work in tcpmp 0.71.i tried in this skinned version but doesn't work!

can you try?if this subtitles are for 0.71, why doesn't work (or maybe problem is mine)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nagrom Nniuq:
I'll take a look at it and see. No guarantees.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
I prefer using the default Windows Mobile soft keyboard, but I can't stand the ugly Windows Mobile 5.0 color scheme that Microsoft still uses by default.

Attached to this e-mail are all of the keyboard skins that I could find on the Internet. They have been scaled to VGA (192 dpi) and included in the msim.192.dll.0409.mui resource file for cooking into your ROM.

I'm afraid I didn't keep track of the original authors, so props go out to all those folks who created the originals.

These will only work for 0409 (English International). The mui is a resource replacement file for the original msim.192.dll. Simply include the file in your ROM (\Windows) and the new resources will be used in place of the original. Feel free to drop them into \Windows before cooking to see how they look.

Simply rename the included file to msim.192.dll.0409.mui (example: change msim.192.dll.0409.BasicBlack.mui to msim.192.dll.0409.mui).

If anybody has any more they want to include, feel free to add to this thread.

Note: there are actually 25 skins in the ZIP, but I couldn't add snapshots for all 25 to this post. I have attached another ZIP containing the original source files if you want to see them before copying them to your phone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] jmckeejr:
I guess I'll be the first to say thanks. Did you say something about dialers too? Like to skin the new Microsoft dialer?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] monx®:
Microsoft has new dialer? Sound interesting :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] monx®:
I really love this skin, if i'm not mistaken, it came from buzzdev dot net but I cant find 192(VGA/hires) resource. Any info pls..
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
That looks like OSXGraphite, which is included in my archive above. I actually made up a hybriid of graphite that keeps the dark grey special keys with lighter colored letter keys. I think I called it GraphiteAlt. It's included as well.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
I have a couple of skins for the default dialer that I will post soon. I only changed the colors not the layout.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] monx®:
it almost look alike GraphiteAlt/OSXGraphite but it isnt. the buttons are sunken (curve) a bit. But thanks for ur collection. I will use GraphiteAlt atm ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] jmckeejr:
I think your talkin about "3d" keyboard skin. I think its called that. I think I have it somewhere among all my files, but is for QVGA :(

You know what would be really awesome, is if someone would skin the Full Qwerty keyboard to resemble the TP2 one. I started doing someting with it, but got busy all of a sudden:rolleyes:

By the way, don;t want to flame or anything, but this thread might be better in Development & Hacking or Raphael Software/Themes. Good job on the skins. I'm gonna use the graphite I think, even though I have never even used the small keyboard. Nice to know its there.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Red5:
Id like to have a new layout for the WM dialer. That would be really nice.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
OK, ya, it's not the same. I was looking at it on my phone and on the small screen it looked the same. If you have the original BMP I can see how well it scales to VGA and add it to the thread.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] monx®:
@trueg

well thanks, attached is the original BMP QVGA resource.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
This one didn't scale very well. The text was not very sharp to begin with. You can give it a try though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] redbandana:
Thanks for the skins trueg. I prefer to only use wm onscreen keyboard because it offers better processes for word suggestion.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] princeasi:
I've been trying to cook the stock US diamond WM soft keyboard into my fuze becuz I like the layout much better, and the keys are a little bigger, but for some reason i still end up with the fuze wm soft keyboard. Can anyone assist or provide correct files to do this?? Much appreciated thx!
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
Ya, I try to eliminate as many 3rd party apps as I can. Since I have a real keyboard (Touch Pro), I can't say I use the soft keyboard much at all, so keeping the stock WM soft keyboard is ideal for me (less memory). I wanted to change the colors though, because when I do use it, I didn't like the ugly WM 5.0 blue/green of the original.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
Sorry, I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do. Either way, we should try and keep this thread on topic. I will PM you and see if I can help you further.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] monx®:
Thanks trueg.

Edit the files

Hi, i am looking for a way to edit these files ( to make em look prettier :)) but even after thourough searching i cannot really find a way to do so. perhaps someone can help me out. or at least give me a bump in the right direction. I found the skins from post one realy nice but they seem to be meant for older divices as the letters on the keyboards arent't really sharp and the general graphics a bit outdated.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] joshkoss:
THANK YOU!! i've been looking for these for fuze.. now i can complete my rom :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
Indeed, there hasn't been much effort in making new default keyboard skins. Most folks simply use 3rd party soft keyboards. Many of them were made 2 to 4 years ago. They are also scaled up from QVGA versions, so they are not as sharp as they could be.

I'm not much of a graphic designer, but I wanted to get a thread started so people with graphical abilities could contribute, although that hasn't really happened.

All of the resource files are simply bitmaps (BMP) so they can be created or edited with pretty much any graphics program (I like GIMP). Simply grab a copy of Resource Hacker http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/, download one of the mui files, extract the bmp, edit it until your hearts content and then replace the original resource with your new one. :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rjh1:
keyboard skin...

is there a way for me to install these on my phone with out cooking them into a rom?

thanks,

Rick
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
Simply copy the mui to you \Windows folder. I can't remember if you need to soft reset or not. The mui is a resource replacement file. WM will automatically use the resources contained in it instead of the original dll. No cooking necessary. Even if you want to replace the resources of the original dll, you can still copy over the original with RescoExplorer. Since the original is part of the ROM, simply delete the newer version and upon reset the original will be there again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rjh1:
Thanks... I will try that

Rick
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
Maybe if we move this thread to Dev & Hacking it'll get a bit more exposure and maybe some contributions? What say you trueg? :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rjh1:

it didnt work...:mad: any ideas?

Thanks,

Rick
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Denniskoenen:
First try

Ok thanks for showing me a way to open/edit those mui files. I basicly want to use the default skin as a startingpoint but i am having a bit of trouble extracting it. Once i have that i can use it as a tamplate and let my creativity do the rest. :p I have tried to extract the msim.dll and the msim.192.dll from my windows dir, no luck so far. if anybody know of a way to extract those, please let me know
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
Ya, for sure. I suppose there are other VGA devices out there, even if they are not as awesome as the Raphael. :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
Well you could simply modify one of the mui files in the first post. If not, I have attached a zip that contains the DLLs and MUIs for 96 & 192 DPI. There is no need to modify the original dll, that is what the MUI is for.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Denniskoenen:
ok, first results

Well, after some great help pushing me in the right direction i have made a new skin based on the original one but in black (as i think most people would like) Since the skins posted earlier were nice but were outdated in terms of looks/grapics this one fits the touch pro perfectly and has the same level of detail as the original keyboard. i'm working on other skins as we speak so look foreward to em

EDIT added a picture
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rjh1:
skins

how do I get my skin to show like this with the number key showing???

Rick
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] trueg:
Do you have your kbmode set to Large Keys which drops the top row in exchange for bigger keys?

Keyboard Options

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429667-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}]

"KBMode" -> Change to the Following value

dword:00000000 -> Use Large Keys

Hello

Thanks for sharing these nice keyboard skins. But I'm missing one skin on it. Thats SaltPepper! :)

If anyone have it please share it or atleast let me know where can I find it. I have it but its qvga....

FYI, I have attached a sample.

Best Regards
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] vagrik:
I want this theme, I would like to use the kitchen. But I do not find this file: msim.dll.0409.mui

Which folder, copy this file to? (For kitchen)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] CRACING:
just place anywhere, oem or sys. :)

In default win source that file will not be present. you have to use your self. of course msim.XX.dll ( where XX is the res ( i.e 192, 96 and etc ) ) will be present and this mui works as its part file

p.s, I think you have missed spell'ed. its msim.XX.dll.0409.mui where XX is the res ( i.e 192, 96 and etc ).

Best Regards

I am going to return my phone, work decided to finally give me a company blackberry so I really have no need for a personal phone anymore. I am just on day 3 of the trial period w/ tmobile so im going to cancel it. I did the upgrade when I first got it and loved it but just incase they power the thing up and try it out to make sure it still works I want to put it back to stock, I found the roms in a sticky, I just don't know how to install them without the program like in the 6.1 version.
[HTC Excalibur] s1l3nt:
you dont need a program just run it because its an official rom

yeah i just gave it a shot and tried it. Sweet thanks, I liked the phone, but the nextel blackberry curve has better features and work is paying for it.

[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
Lol, I broke my sidekick walking down a nature trail -__-
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
Oh, and back tot he topic since I forgot to ask...

Why are you flashing back if you're returning it?

I've talked to TMO reps about using other roms, and they say as long as it's still WM and it's not a brick, there is nothing wrong with it.

Maybe they're wrong, but I don't see the harm, since when you return it it's just gunna end up in a pile of partially used phones and it's gunna be refurbished to be resold as new.

i've had wm6.1 4 a while and the problem was that whenever i try to switch on wifi from the comm manager that round working hourglass shows and then it doesnt turn on , i dunno what happens but the symbol of wlan with the little x on it are still the same

i downgraded back to wm5 2.26 and the same problem then i installed the official T-mobile 3.08 rom and still the same problem

worthy to mention that the official ruu didnt work wz error 326 so i had to extract the nk.nbf and cook the rom again and it worked

does this mean that my wlan hardware is faulty ?

or is it a software problem ?

does anyone have the same problem? can u plz help me ?

i searched all aroud the forum and i tried to hard reset my t-mobile vario several times and still doesnt work :confused::confused:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ChaoticDruid:
Hi all, its been a long time since Ive posted, but I recently killed my almost 3 yr old TyTN by leaving it in my pocket while sand blasting, Ive since replaced it with a TyTN II, but was hoping maybe I could refurb it, and give it to a family member.

Initially about 6 months ago it got a light blue tint, after I tossed it onto the floor irritated from a lagging pocket IE, but when the sand got to it, it was gritty sliding it open the first time to clean it, and even after cleaning, a few days later the screen started randomly turning white, and then finally stayed that way.

Im unsure if its the ribbon cable or what, it looks pretty good still, and Ive taken the phone apart and tried to get it to work with just a board, cable, and screen, but no luck. When I plug the phone in to a pc, AS still comes up, and it would even white screen while I was talking on it, and still worked, so I think the main board is still ok.

I was just curious of anyone happened to have an old bricked unit laying around, or a bulk of parts for a decent price, it looks like buying the parts individually would cost more than just a new refurb.

The phone has actually been a pretty rugged, took lots of abuse over the yrs, and kept ticking.

Thanks,

Dru

Edit: Hopefully I havent stuck this in the wrong spot, I just noticed the marketplace section. Its been a long week, move it if need be.

[G1 Apps and Games] MontAlbert:
is it possible to backup data from on app before flashing?

i am running dudes cupcake and have bought workoutmanager from the market. i have taken a heap of time to install all my workouts and exercises and dont want to lose it next time i wipe and flash.... the app has an export function but no import.

i found the data for the app in: ls /system/intmem/data/com.wktmngr

inside was 2 files- MyWorkout and lib.

i figure i could just copy these to sd card using cp /system/intmem/data/com.wktmngr/MyWorkout /sdcard

and same for lib.

then cp this back in after flashing....

would this work?

is this the correct command or do i need cp -a /system/intmem/data/com.wktmngr/MyWorkout /sdcard ???

thx
[G1 Apps and Games] bittermormon:
I posted a similar question a little while ago in the main Dream forum. Worth I can't find the link now but if I remember correctly you will find the apps estate in data/data and you can web pull to your computer or copy to your decade.

If you search under my name, it should show up.
[G1 Apps and Games] MontAlbert:
thanks mate- i figured it out myself on the weekend.... problem was finding the data folder with the new apps2sd- esp. with me being a linux nooob....

cp /system/intmem/data/com.wktmngr/MyWorkout /sdcard

i tested it by uninstalling app and checkin it had deleted all data- it had... then reinstalled, rm the new MyWorkout and cp old one in.

If anyone is wondering: Workout Manager is a great gym app. Best so far- not the best GUI but the fxns are exactly what is required....

[G1 Android Development] DesignDawg:
Hey all,

I've been having a LOT of stability problems with my phone ever since I've been running the cupcake builds. This may or may not be a coincidence, but the more I've read about others' experience with restarts, the more the SD card seems to play into it. It was my understanding with the Haykuro builds that the A2SD builds were always looking for the partition on the SD, and if you weren't using A2SD, it would cause performance issues. Unfortunately, JF's builds don't give you a non-A2SD choice, and since he credited Haykuro for the method, I assume he's using the same one. So what I'm wondering, before I revert back to a non-cupcake build (oh, God, please, no), could this constant checking of my SD card scenario (just the way it was explained to me...please correct me if it's wrong) be causing my instability problems? I am not using A2SD, because I only have a class 4 card, and not a ton of apps--no need really. Before cupcake, I had only seen my battery once. --The day I installed it. Since cupcake, I see my battery about an average of 6-7 times a day when I have to pull it out. :(

Your thoughts?
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
It doesn't constantly check, it only checks on boot.
[G1 Android Development] Ryanmo5:
JF version is a clean install without apps 2 sd included. If you are gonna use JF 1.5 i recommend following this link and follow the instructions. This apps to sd method is still the best with the least problems. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=480582
[G1 Android Development] DesignDawg:
Well, crap. If you guys are right, thanks for letting me know, and I guess that's not the problem. Suckin. My next steps were going to be running without an SD card in the phone at all for a while and see if I'm still crashing, then to downgrade to the last build I KNOW was stable as a rock, which was probably 1.43. Then I was considering going to the HTC ADP build, just to see if, for my phone, it's "hacked" cupcake that's the problem...

Crash-prone phone is the WORST.

but if i try to replace the skins in the /program files/psshutxp

EDIT: i figured it out, some skins spelling were incorrect

extract from the author manual

For VGA version, 3 gif's files in a skin.zip:

psshutxp_skin_vga.gif - checkmark (24x24);

psshutxp_skin_rus_vga.gif - russian dialog (440x280);

so the VGA black spider skin i chose

had

psshutxp_skin_enD_vga

instead of

psshutxp_skin_enG_vga

useful anyway.

You can also try TouchLockPro, which has an action screen to softreset:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HandySpanner:
I don't get this. If the phone is in such a state that you need to access the reset button at the back, then surely you're not going to be able to reset the device using software since you won't be able to get at that software. And if the software's working well enough that you can run a program, then why not just hold down the power button for a few seconds and switch it off and then on again that way?
